Anyone from the public was able to bring in clothing in need of repairs, to help fund construction of the "black box" theater the performers are building in Kenai, Burdick said. It is also nice to provide a service "while asking people for money," Imholte joked. "We want everyone to take advantage of people who don't mind mending all afternoon," she said.

ADVANCE FOR SUNDAY SEPT. 13 - In this Aug. 27, 2015 photo, Julie Diana helps a young dancer in a ballet class at Juneau Dance Theatre in Juneau, Alaska.  About 15 years ago, the San Francisco Ballet was touring Spain when principal dancer Julie Diana's partner fell and broke his foot. A dancer who had recently joined the company, Zachary "Zak" Hench, stepped in and learned the part in just three days.  It was the start of long-lasting partnership that has, most recently, brought the two to Juneau. Diana is the new executive director of Juneau Dance Theatre, and Hench is the new artistic director.
